Mothers Day Gift Project: Restaurant Guide Folder

Organise your Take Away Menus and Discount Vouchers in this handy folder! We are often searching for our menus on a Friday night when we need a night off from cooking. This folder is quick to assemble and has made organising our Menus a snap!

Using your computer and printer, print out a title for the front and spine of your binder. Also print out labels for the sections of your folder. I used “Menus” and “Vouchers” as my labels. You may choose to have a different section for each type of cuisine (Asian, Italian, Greek, Fast Food, cafes etc) – we are not that sophisticated and usually get Take Away pizza or Asian!

Next, mount your labels/titles on pieces of card. Then assemble a cover and spine insert using patterned paper and plain card, and your favourite scrapbooking techniques.

Next, cut a piece of A4 card in two, label it, and punch holes in it to make file dividers.

At the back of the folder, insert a clear plastic zippered sleeve. The Clear Case is a great way to store all those discount vouchers/coupons that come in the mail so you can find them when your need them.

These would make a great Mothers Day gift! You could team one with a gift voucher to your Mums favourite cafe or restaurant.Posted by Lisa

I saw this project on One Pretty Thing and thought I’d pop over to read more about it. Thanks for sharing this great idea. I see there’s lots more to discover on your blog, so I’ve got quite a bit of reading to do.

would love to have a use for one of those folders but we practically never get to have takeaway…….one advantage/disadvantage of living out of town……..but having spent the weekend in a city I became the takeaway queen……..
